Commercial Description:
It’s not as heavy bodied and malty as many IPA’s, in contrast the palate is more crisp and dry. If you consider yourself a "hop-head" you owe it to yourself to grab this beer.

Bottle: Pretty good IPA. Aroma and flavor of hops. Not overpowering, but definitely there. I would definitely drink again.

Bottle from pepsican. Hazy orange brown. Awesome fluffy head. Floral and grapefruit aroma with a small amount of caramel malt. Citrus and pine hops make up the flavor with light caramel malt. Lingering citrus bitterness. A touch resiny. A nice IPA.

Brownish orange in color. Hazy since it is unfiltered. Very subtle hop aroma. Flavor is mainly of pine. Good lingering bitterness. This IPA is good but not enough for me to crave another bottle.

12 oz. bottle via trade with tytoanderso - Pours a hazy amber color with a thin off white head. Very light spotty lacing. Aroma is floral, citrus, pine, and faint toasted malt. Flavor is citrus and pine hops, and toasted caramel malt. Not as balanced as many other IPA’s. Palate is a tad thin and lingering. Light to medium body. A good IPA. Thanks Tyler.

Bottle. Pours a murky orange/brown color with about two fingers of beige head. Aromas are crisp citrus and pine... almost like spring cleaning or something. Flavor is very heavy on hops... with a nice crisp, clean edge to it. It is a really refreshing take on an IPA, that I find myself liking. I can’t figure out why, though, since the malt presence isn’t quite enough to support all that hops and yet it works. I could drink more of these.

Pours a ruddy tangerine with visible sediment and a frothy tan head that dies slow. Lacing occurs in full sheets all around the glass. Smells nice and citrusy with mean hops and a little yeast and malt. This is mean at the start with a rindy hop bite followed by a pure balance of yeasty sweet malt. Best of both worlds. Medium in the mouth and drinkable but DIPA like.

Hazy prune colored pour with a very small white head the vanishes almost as soon as the pour is finished. Nice white lacing. Floaties throughout the body. Nice hop filled aroma. Some citrus and alcohol in flavor.

[Bottle] Pours hazy amber with a small white head. Aroma is about what I expected with it being very citrusy. Taste likewise has a lot of citrus in it with some malt also present. Not overly bitter. Good mouthfeel. Pretty good, but not spectacular.
